I'm riding on this as well
in my case these are the ones in my list but i can't decide which one, they all have their pros and cons
Asus Maximus Gene V
Sabertooth Z77
MSI Z77-GD65
Asus P8Z77 Pro
Asus Maximus Formula/ThunderFX is out of the question, this thing cost 30% more in my country but if this board had the same price in Newegg then I'll scratch everything else for this board.
